First,let me explain about the strat of "Hinamatsuri"!!

Hinamatsuri occurs on March 3 and is an occasion

to pray for young girls' display dolls for the Doll's festival and dedicate to them

peach blossoms,rice cake cubes,special colored and

dimamond-shaped rice cakes,white sake,and other items.

The origin of hinamatsuri is an ancient Chinese practice in which the sin of the body and misfortune

are transferred to a doll and washed away by setting the doll in a river to drift away.

When this practice spread to Japan,it was linked to girl's playing with dolls and,

in the Edo Period(1603-1867),was developed into the hinamatsuri.

 

So in Japan,if there is girl in one familiy,

almost everyfamily have this dolls which is called hinaninngyou at home!!:)
